Noisy bearings Gerald D. • Belle Vernon , PA • October 18, 2014
Repair went fairly smoothly by following the EXCELLENT how-to video provided. I had only a few issues and suggestions. 1.

LG front load washer door gasket needed replacement due to mold buildup Howard F. • Port Orange , FL • April 15, 2020
If you have an older model WM8000H_A you MUST pay attention to the type of door gasket (boot seal) that it uses. Every video I could find for replacing the seal on the WM8000HWA involved a different product than what was required for our specific washer. I wound up getting the wrong one by ordering it without help and had to exchange it - after I had the machine taken apart. Thanks to AppliancePartsPros I got the correct seal and front retaining ring the next day.
NOTE! The retaining rings are...

2 broken "wheel and mount assemblies" (same side) and a few misc upper basket plastic part were broken Michael B. • Wellington , FL • December 29, 2015
With the basket out of the dishwasher, the plastic parts basically snap on and off... popped the broken parts off and the new parts on.

I just pulled the dishwasher out of its cabinet a little over a foot and removed the 2 screws holding each assembly in place and removed them. The previous gaskets (2 PER ASSEMBLY)...

I have stacked units of washer/dryer due to space restrictions and had to ask my son-in-law to help me lift the dryer of the washer once I had prepared the process by fabricating 2 pieces of 3/4" plywood to turn the dryer and then slide it out far enough were 2 people can lift it and then set it on some cribbing for easy handling.
